Customers are pleased with the Universal Wi-Fi Range Extender's ease of use, Wi-Fi range, and signal strength. Many appreciate its quick setup, compact size, and good performance for the price. However, some experienced connection instability, and compatibility issues were also reported by a few users. The Ethernet port was a welcome feature for some.

I have a Netgear router so I bought this one after seeing so many positive reviews. I plugged it into a wall outlet in the kitchen and used a cable to connect in from my laptop. Got it setup and running in less than 5 minutes and now have full bars at the other end of the house. The only reason I gave it a lower rating on ease of use is because the address they give you, in the manual and online, do not work. I wanted to see the settings after it was up and running and so far no luck. I think I'm going to have to use a cable whenever I want to look at those. But it has been running constantly since it was plugged in, no drops, no loss of signal, everything runs great. Laptops, Xbox, my TV (streams movies!) - everything.

Replaced router, then in my basement wifi signal strength was almost none. Purchased this product, set it up in about 10 minutes, and now I enjoy the maximum strength of the signal like never before. Easiest set-up of any electronic item that I have ever purchased. Great buy!!

Router was upstairs, it was easy to connect and get up in running. Had no issues, only reason I returned it was I got one similar item as a gift about a week later.

I've had this extender for about 2 weeks now. I used to have difficulty picking up my wifi on the 2nd floor at the opposite end of the house as well as out on the back deck. Not any more! I installed this on the 1st floor at the other end of the house and it's worked great since!

I had problems with my router and the size of the house. I was thing about getting a new router but this extender solved the problem. Easy to install. The extended connects to your router wireless and functions as a second router when needed.

Our modem is in the basement in my office. We were having difficulty maintaining a strong signal on the 2nd floor of our house. Now that we have the Wi-Fi extender we are not having any problems.

This wifi extender was just what I needed. My wifi needed a boost upstairs. Was constantly slow or buffering. This extender eliminated all my issues and my streaming is no longer interrupted. Already recommending it to my friends.

We purchased this to extend our WiFi outside of our house. Installation wasn’t as easy as we thought. We haven’t noticed much of a difference. In fairness, I haven’t followed up with Best Buy for advice.

It was a quick and easy install. You connect to it with your computer, and then it walks you through connecting to your current WiFi signal. Hassle free out of the box.
